Women's soccer falls to FIU 2-1 in regular season finale

FIU's Chelsea Leiva showed no sympathy Thursday night, as the FAU seniors' final game was foiled by the Panthers' goal scorer, who tallied two goals in FIU's 2-1 win.

The Owls will enter the Sun Belt Conference tournament next week in Mobile as the eighth and final seed of the tournament, where they could face the Panthers again in the first round. The seedings will be finalized by the end of the weekend. Three Sun Belt teams won't make the Sun Belt Conference Tournament (UL, ULM, ULAR.)

Former North Carolina Tar Heel Olivia MBala scored her first goal for the Owls with six minutes remaining in the game, but FAU's comeback fell short.

FAU ends its regular season 5-12 (3-7 in conference). The Owls will play their opening round Sun Belt tourmament game at 5 p.m. on October 30.
